- Abstract
Two new highly oxygenated limonoids, flexuosoids A ( 1) and B ( 2), and three new arylnaphthalene lignan glycosides, phyllanthusmins D-F ( 3- 5), were isolated from the roots of Phyllanthus flexuosus, in addition to three known lignans, phyllanthusmin C, arabelline, and (+)-diasyringaresinol. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. Compounds 1 and 2, two new decaoxygenated limonoids with a C-19/29 lactol bridge and heptaoxygenated substituents at C-1, C-2, C-3, C-7, C-11, C-17, and C-30, represent the second example of limonoids in the Euphorbiaceae family. Most of the isolates were tested for their antifeedant, anti-herpes simplex virus 1, and cytotoxic activities. The new limonoids 1 and 2 showed promising antifeedant activity against the beet army worm ( Spodoptera exigua) with EC values of 25.1 and 17.3 μg/cm, respectively. In addition, both of them displayed moderate cytotoxicity against the ECA109 human esophagus cancer cell line, along with the known lignan glycoside, phyllanthusmin C, with the IC values of 11.5 ( 1), 8.5 ( 2), and 7.8 (phyllanthusmin C) μM, respectively.
